New Iron Hills Unique Siege Weapon

[Walküre]

I wish you luck!
Your last similar efforts had great results, I hope same now.

Indeed my friend your efforts were if immense help I hold fingers crossed this time to be so too! :-)

I wish you luck too, Fredius, yours was indeed a great contribution 

[Fredius]

Hahaha thanks guys really, you give me too much credit! It was you guys who brainstormed about these ideas the most, and wrote whole essays to perfect them. Such efforts cannot be ignored in my opinion ! But thanks for your kindness, this motivates me to keep on translating .

[korner]

question: do you WANT to do that translation (to improve your german for example) or will you do it because it´s a "need".

it won´t take more then 5 minutes for a native speaker, but I don´t want to detain you from your german lessons, if it´s the case 

[Fredius]

Well I do it because I think this is the best way to involve the German community with the English ideas, and because I very much like some of the ideas here and the chance to get them in game will be greater when more people can see and judge about it. The Ered Mithrin idea received a lot of support from the German community, as well as the English community, so that's why I think the Edain Team implemented them in the mod.

Ofcourse a native speaker will translate it within 5 minutes; I don't take much time either no worries, especially since this idea is not so big as the Ered Mithrin idea was, but obviously I'm not so fast and good as a native speaker. If you, for example, would like to help with translating suggestions then that would be great ofcourse!

And yes, I also do it to not let me forget the German language, since I don't speak it so much anymore as I used to .

May I suggest to make new Poll since the current one seems like frozen and the First and Last Option are winning with small edge for the First !I think a Poll with only those two Options will help spread the Votes and get us a winner! :-)
What you think about that mates!? :-)
Greetings! :-)

[Elite KryPtik]

I don't think that would be fair to the people who voted for the other options. I would rather keep it the way it is so we have a record of who wants what.

[LordDainIronfoot]

I see! :-) No problem my friend,just an idea! :-) Let's hope more people will Vote in Future! :-)

I agree with Elite KryPtik, Dáin.

This poll will remain as a statement for the ET, clearly showing that the majority of the people who voted supported the implementation of the ballistas in the Iron Hills (the ways via which they could be implemented is still matter of the debate) 

[CragLord]

Main problem is popularity.   
This topic should be advertised a bit more, maybe on modb, so we could get more votes.
Some homework for our moderator. 

[Gandalf The Gray]

agree with crag lord And Awesome suggestion

[Elite KryPtik]

I don't think its the moderators responsibility to "Advertise" anything. If anything, that responsibility would fall to me, and frankly I can't be bothered. Dwarves aren't my favorite faction(Rohan is, obviously ), I just made this suggestion off-handedly as a fun little idea, I never expected it to reach 100+ replies. If somebody wants to try and bring people to the thread they can feel free, but its nobodies job to do it.

[CragLord]

I understood you are pretty objective person, but this was also a joke between Walk and me. Walk is one of the most active members on modb (and well known there) in same time so I  have presumed he could do this.
After all this is matter of good will (it is not consuming time job) so anyone could do this, but I know Walk is the most influenced there among us.

P.S. I have never told it is moderator or anyone else duty or job, I have just suggested it for good reasons. Simple we need more votes and opinions here if we want to change something about this matter, no matter you have suggested it off-handedly. Similar topics about balista have been created before, so this is good chance to finally do something about this.

True, it's not exactly one of my duties, but, don't worry, it's not really something demanding; just a sort of 'usual procedure' in the English Forum 
Many great ideas managed to attract the interest of many other people via specific 'announcements' on ModDB; and, since I am one of the Moderators of this forum, supposed to be known by the majority of the people that are active both on ModDB and here, my activity as a 'guide' of discussions rightly fits this task.

Anyway, I had not posted anything before, because, as you may have noticed from the statement of Lord of Mordor, there was a debate among the Moderators about the recent usage of polls.
That's why I had to take time and make sure that this poll would have been a really useful opportunity; and, I have to say, you (all the people involved in this topic) were the ones who definitely used the function of the poll in the best and most suitable way one could expect.

You have been focused from the beginning on being the clearest and most explanatory possible, making sure that there were solid proposals and thoughtful reasons before starting this poll 

[Elite KryPtik]

Ah, here is another example of my misunderstanding your intent because English is not your first language To me, your post looked demanding and slightly rude Crag, so I apologize for my somewhat firm response.

As for drawing people here, I would welcome it, more votes is always better

[CragLord]

No problem at all Elite.

Misunderstanding knows to be very serious problem (happened to me many times sadly...) sometimes, but  forum gives that time gap for answer which is good thing in those situations.

I honestly think this topic present nice chance to finally do something about this balista matter. Similar  balistas suggestions were suggested many times over and I would personally like we finally get some results about it. Because I wrote that in first place. 

P.S. Happy birthday mate!

Kind regards
